It's odd, I think, to count the Malay peninsula after you've already included Indochina, which the Malay peninsula is part of.

Also, I'm fairly sure that "India" is a legitimate alternate name for "Hindustan"

i can add the source from what i took the information for this quiz. also as you could imagine the toponyms of this quiz has the same format as they do in russian. for example in russian to describe the peninsula where india is we use word "Indostan" — it's the "Hindustan" in english, we dont use just "Indiya" or "Indiyskiy poluostrov" (Indian peninsula)
